The cruise line has gone the extra mile with its health and safety measures by attaining this voluntary notation.

No, your eyes are not deceiving you – we’ve published our Wednesday Cruise Wrap on a Thursday this week! And, as you can imagine, it has led to complete and total anarchy in the Travel Weekly office.

This week’s Cruise Wrap is so hefty, we reckon that if each letter weighed a tonne, it would equate to a 4,000-pax ship. However, we’re not mathematicians and we also haven’t made any effort to count each individual letter.

Cruise through the rest of the week with this fresh assortment of cruise news. Get it? Cruise through? Like a cruise ship? Yeah, we cringed too.

This week’s Cruise Wrap is a big one, so we recommend settling in with a cup of tea and a few biccies.

Have you been meaning to get in touch with your MSC BDM? You could try sending a letter via carrier pigeon, or you could just use this new platform.

Hop on board this week’s cruise news extravaganza! And by hop on board, we mean quietly read this post, preferably in the comfort of your home office.

Wow your clients and impress your friends with all the latest updates from the cruise industry. Or at least while away a few hours staring at the pretty pictures.

Wish you were cruising through the Caribbean rather than slugging it out with the rest of us? Feel free to live vicariously through the images in this Cruise Wrap.

This week’s Cruise Wrap is best enjoyed while wearing a captain’s hat and listening to Enya’s “Sail Away” on repeat. Thank us later.

Uniworld Boutique River Cruises has levelled a lawsuit against MSC Cruises over massive damages sustained in a Venice ship collision last year.

If this edition of Flavour of the Week was a marine animal, it would be a blue whale. In other words, this wrap is an absolute whopper.
